What consitutes a non-profit domain ?

[flavius]

Hallo !

I am a new costumer so this is not a pre-sales question but all searches about "non-profit" turned out to be in this forum so I thought I'd add mine here too.

What exactly consitutes a non-profit domain ? I am running fan-websites and I am not getting paid by anyone for those (quite the opposite LOL) . Is this a non-profit website ? Or does it have to be a registered non-profit organisation ?

What if I add Google-Ads to my site ? Is it still non-profit ?

Also , when my membership relapses and I only used 1 or maybe not even 1 of my allowed domains. Can I still use the allowed # of templates on sites even though I cannot add them to my member account anymore ?

Thanks for your help !

They post meeting times, meeting locations, Q & A pages about their beliefs, contact information and forms, and photos and bios to get to know the clergy. Now they can share their message with more people and just hand out their website address to friends and family who want to know more.

Charity Website
